>originally was only going to have new Pokemon but they ran out of time and had to fill in the gaps with old monsThe original Black and White
>>58411389muh sceptile :))
>>58411389Black ans White's second versions were meant to add only new pokemon too
probably wouldn't have had to do it if the original set of sprites weren't so shitty lookingit's very telling that people thought for years the banette sprite looked weird and off-model and it turned out to be because they just based it off of the beta sprite that was probably made before they finalized the design
>>58411389The storyslop is also similar to Gen 5
>>58411389I can tell that was the original intention
>>58411643If you give me like a day I'm positive I can find a usenet post about it.Banette looks really weird compared to how it showed up in the anime.
>>58411389
>fucking up the link that badlyAhem,>>58411677>has nothing to do with the sprite and accompanying intended original artworkOkay, so why the hell does it look like this in Colosseum?https://youtube.com/watch?v=4GVOKtPQmI0&t=1430That looks like modern Banette, NOT RSE Banette, and they definitely didn't have a budgeting restriction to model Banette that way here.
>>58411389>>originally was only going to have new Pokemon but they ran out of time and had to fill in the gaps with old monsSource plz
>they couldn't figure out how to make a new zubat, geodude, or tentacruelEverything else is pretty much accounted for... And they had plenty of prototype designs to work with. I bet they were more afraid of the reaction than unable to fill the gaps.
>>58411525>>58411662>>58411721I don't understand what's different about banette here or there
>>58411424retard
>>58413092he's trying to say it's hand length and face width that's "weird and offmodel"
>>58411691>>58413047Super early pitch concepts from the Teraleak. They gave up on it immediately after realizing they couldn't design enough new Pokemon to match Kanto's number and started using Kantomons like Rapidash in character bios like Wally (despite the fact Rapidash ended up not even being in Hoenn anyway)This would've been around when Team Magma were secretly infiltrating Devon Corps. from the inside and the games were prequels set in 1989. RS definitely have some of that DNA in them still, but couldn't commit likely due to needing to rebuild the engine for GBA and losing cross-gen compatibility. I'm sure if they were able to make it work they'd have committed but needing to get all 386 mons in the game's code changed that
>>58411833 >>58413092 >>58413124Actually, I latched onto the head protrusion. It's "jagged" in both the anime and in DX, but it's "smooth" in the final RSE sprite.Didn't even notice the arms.
>>58411643>>58413092>>58413124>>58413160see pic related. technically from the second half of AG but even in its first episode it still looked nearly identical to its usual appearance outside of a couple of gag facesthe original sprite looks completely deflated by comparison, has tiny arms and the spikes jut out near the back of the head instead of being centered around the headeven the one pokemon card banette got in 2004 which was ALSO obviously off-model (like many cards, especially at the time) still had significantly more in common with the current design than the RSE sprite
>>58413287the card, for reference.
>>58413287I kinda sorta see it, I just think it's a really tiny change, to the point where calling it "obviously" off model is a bit questionable...
>>58411389>Ruby/Sapphire>Black/White>Sun/MoonThe only games that sold less than the mainline games released both before and after them
>>58413287thought it was just autism at first but i see it nowthey actually did him so dirty
>>58411389>originally was only going to have new Pokemon but they ran out of timeGood, the franchise would've died even sooner if they pulled that bullshit. Kantomons saved these shit games.
>>58415606>he's glad the franchise continued into this shitheap
>>58415610We got Sinnoh out of it, so it was worth it in my eyes.
>>58415606>tentacool, geodude and zubat saved the gamesk
>>58415626>gen v>no tentacool zubat geodude>worst mainline sales by farQED
>>58415624Sinnoh's the worst non-switch region lmao
>>58415674nah that's Johto
>>58415674nah that's Alola
>>58415674FRLG Kanto*
>>58415606>Kantomons saved these shit gamesYou can say that about JOHTURD but Hoenn would have been just fine running its own dex and nothing else.
God I fucking wished Gardevoir didn't exist. If it didn't nobody would give a fuck about the Hoenndex
>>58415674says nobody
>>58415852I wonder what your next cope will be
>>58415907wow, a vote of 150 people in some random nobody community, you sure showed em
>the "unix filename-[thing]" faggot shitposter is here
>>58415916How does it feel being born after the year 2000?
>>58415925I was born in 1999 and I played Red when I was 6, a Gameboy color handed down from my father, a game I beat when I was mere 6 years old. i wouldn't play my second Pokemon game Emerald until I was 8, and Diamond when I was 10.I have played every single mainline game and I still hold the belief that Hoenn has the most iconic and solid choice of Pokemon to this day. Kanto doesn't even fare above Unova to me.
>>58415917next cope please>>58415925wouldn't know
>>58415919>
>>58415919It's just yawnfag again.
>>58415907>the public surely knows best :)
>>58415996>I ignore patterns if they say something I don't like and hurt my feelings
>>58416041If you love reddit so much why don't you go back there and stay there?
>>58416053...he says, tears rushing down his eyes, as he forgets all the data sourced from youtube...
>>58416145please see >>58415996
>>58416145Why do you get your opinions from YouTube?
>>58416163I don't, I see what others' opinions are on youtube. If you don't understand the difference, you never graduated high school.
>>58416041>gen 1 below gen 2absolutely lost
>>58416318it's just residual KDS zoomers became infected with due to the "pandering" in nugens
>>58416333i figured as much
>>58411525Banette looked like banette to me, I played the games and that's it. Same for nosepass.
